Paragraph Number

175

In certain embodiments, the preliminary cutting guide model may be generated based on anatomic data and/or a bone model or a combination of these, and no model or predesigned structure, template, or prototype. Alternatively, or in addition, the preliminary cutting guide model may be, or may originate from, a template cutting guide model selected from a set of template cutting guide model. Each model in the set of template cutting guide models may include one or more cutting guide features positioned and/or sized and/or configured to fit for an average patient’s foot. The template cutting guide model may subsequently be modified or revised by an automated process or manual process to generate the preliminary cutting guide model used in this disclosure.
